Hose Oil Breather

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationI have pod filters and to avoid water coming in the oil breather port is my plan to just install a fuel house pipe.
I have measure the port to be 15mm, do you think a fuel house with 13mm house should be able to enter the 15mm port ?






The Oil breather port on the engine, I have measure it to me 15mm, do you think a petrol hose

It should work. On mine I got a 90 degree PCV rubber fitting so i could angle the hose away easier.

Thank you, my plan is to use these hose and also use rubber house on the two vent port on the carbs ending up the 3 hoses around the battery so no water can come into the engine/carbs when cleaning the bike.

If you wanted to get fancy you could use something like this:

pvcpipesupplies.com/12in-hayward-150psi-...ting-bfa1005tes.html

And drill the back of one of your pods out, so the oil breather would terminate inside, much like it does with the stock airbox, This is something I did with no adverse results and prevents oil/oil vapor sliming up your bike.

Thank you, I have never seen oil coming out from the oil breather?
I was thinking just fit a hose on and let it go away, stop the hose in front of the battery. Then will not water from cleaning the bike etc be able to enter the oil breather?

If you do that, end the hose pointing down so rain is less likly to enter.
